i'm surprised synecdoche or wall e didn't take it. this is a pretty darn good score/i like it, but it's also pretty conventional. this must be the first time brion has lost in a year he wrote something.

I just can't justifiably say Slumdog because they play two versions of Paper Plans back to fucking back.

Jon Brion should've won.

“The myth by no means finds its adequate objectification in the spoken word. The structure of the scenes and the visible imagery reveal a deeper wisdom than the poet himself is able to put into words and concepts” – Friedrich Nietzsche
